For PEB-10G/57811-1S:

General Parameters

TCP/IP Parameters via DHCP [Enabled]

This option applies to IPv4.

[Enabled] The iSCSI boot host software acquires the IP address from the DHCP server.

[Disabled] The iSCSI boot host software acquires the static IP address.

iSCSI Parameters via DHCP [Enabled]

[Enabled] The iSCSI boot host software acquires its iSCSI target parameters from the DHCP server.

[Disabled] The iSCSI boot host software acquires its iSCSI target parameters via the static IP address, which is entered through the iSCSI Initiator Parameters Configuration screen.

CHAP Authentication [Disabled]

[Enabled] Allows the iSCSI boot host software to use CHAP authentication when connecting to the iSCSI target. Enter the CHAP ID and CHAP Secret in the Initiator Parameters configuration screen.

[Disabled] Does not allow the iSCSI boot host software to use CHAP authentication when connecting to the iSCSI target.

Boot to iSCSI Target [Enabled]

[Enabled] The iSCSI boot host software immediately attempts to boot from the iSCSI target after successfully connecting to it.

[Disabled] The iSCSI boot host software does not attempt to boot from the iSCSI target after successfully connecting to it. The control will then return to the system BIOS so that the next boot device may be used.

[One Time Disabled] On the first system boot, the iSCSI boot host software does not attempt to boot from the iSCSI target. On subsequent system reboots, the iSCSI boot host software will attempt to boot from the iSCSI target. This option is useful when doing a remote install of the OS to an iSCSI target.

- When using iSCSI boot, set Boot to iSCSI Target to [Disabled] or [One Time Disabled].

- When using iSCSI boot to install Windows Server 2008 OS, refer to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/974072/EN-US to complete the process.

DHCP Vendor ID [BRCM ISAN]

Controls how the iSCSI boot host software interprets the Vendor Class ID field used in the DHCP server. If DHCP is disabled, this value does not need to be specified. Enter a new value in 0 to 32 characters.

Link Up Delay Time [0]

Decides how many seconds the iSCSI boot host software waits after an Ethernet link is established before sending any data over the network. The valid values are 0 to 255.

Use TCP Timestamp [Disabled]

Enables or disables the TCP Timestamp option. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]

Target as First HDD [Disabled]

When enabled, the iSCSI target drive appears as the first hard drive in the system. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]

LUN Busy Retry Count [0]

Specifies the number of connection retries the iSCSI Boot initiator will attempt if the iSCSI target LUN is busy. Configuration options: [0] – [60]

IP Version [IPv4]

Switches between the IPv4 or IPv6 protocol. Configuration options: [IPv4] [IPv6]

Modifying this parameter erases all IP-related values.

3

3.1 Windows

^® Server OS Driver Installation

To update the Ethernet card driver for Windows ^® Server OS:

1. Restart the computer, and then log on with Administrator privileges.
2. Insert the Support CD to the optical drive. The Support CD automatically displays the Drivers menu if Autorun is enabled in your computer.

• If Windows automatically detects the LAN controllers and displays a New Hardware Found window, click Cancel to close this window.
• If Autorun is NOT enabled in your computer, browse the contents of the Support CD to locate the file Setup.exe. Double-click Setup.exe to run the CD.

3. Click Broadcom NetXreme II GigE Driver.

4. Click Next when the Broadcom NetXreme II Driver Installer-InstallShield Wizard window appears.

1. Toggle I accept the terms in the license agreement and click Next to continue.

1. Follow the screen instructions to complete the installation.

1. If the Windows Security window appears during the driver installation, click Install this driver software anyway to continue.

1. Click Finish to exit the installation wizard.

1. Restart the system.

3.2 Linux OS Driver Installation

To install the Ethernet card driver for Linux OS:

1. Within the Linux Terminal, install the source RPM package:

rpm -ivh netxtreme2-.src.rpm

For Red Hat Linux:

For SuSE Linux:

1. CD to the RPM path and build the binary driver for your kernel:

cd /usr/src/{redhat,OpenLinux,turbo,packages,rpm ..}

(For RHEL 6.0 and above, cd \~/rpmbuild)

For Red Hat Linux:

For SuSE Linux:

rpm -bb SPECS/netxtreme2.spec

or

(For RPM version 4.x.x)

rpmbuild -bb SPECS/netxtreme2.spec

Note that the RPM path is different for different Linux distributions.

The driver will be compiled for the running kernel by default. To build the driver for a kernel different than the running one, specify the kernel by defining it in KVER:

rpmbuild -bb SPECS/netxtreme2.spec --define "KVER "

in the form of 2.x.y-z is the version of another kernel that is installed on the system.

1. Install the newly built package (driver and main page):

For Red Hat Linux:

For SuSE Linux:

rpm -ivh RPMS//netxtreme2-..rpm

where is the machine architecture such as i386:

For SuSE Linux:

rpm -ivh RPMS/i386/netxtreme2-.i386.rpm

Note that the --force option may be needed on some Linux distributions if conflicts are reported.

The drivers will be installed in the following path:

2.4.x kernels:

/lib/modules//kernel/drivers/net/bnx2.o

/lib/modules//kernel/drivers/net/bnx2x.o

2.6.0 kernels:

/lib/modules//kernel/drivers/net/bnx2.ko

/lib/modules//kernel/drivers/net/bnx2x.ko

2.6.16 and newer kernels:

/lib/modules//kernel/drivers/net/bnx2.ko

/lib/modules//kernel/drivers/net/bnx2x.ko

/lib/modules//kernel/drivers/net/cnic.ko

Newer RHEL and SLES distros:

/lib/modules//updates/bnx2.ko

/lib/modules//updates/cnic.ko

/lib/modules//updates/bnx2x.ko

/lib/modules//updates/bnx2i.ko

/lib/modules//updates/bnx2fc.ko

1. Unload existing driver if necessary:

rmmod bnx2
rmmod bnx2x 

If the cnic driver is loaded, it should also be unloaded along with dependent drivers:

rmmod bnx2fc
rmmod bnx2i
rmmod cnic 

1. Load the bnx2 driver for the BCM5706/BCM5708/5709/5716 devices:

insmod bnx2.o
or
insmod bnx2.ko (on 2.6.x kernels)
or
modprobe bnx2 

To load the bnx2x driver for the BCM57710/BCM57711/BCM57711E/BCM57712 devices:

insmod bnx2x.o
or
insmod bnx2x.ko (on 2.6.x kernels)
or
modprobe bnx2x 

To load the cnic driver:

insmod cnic.ko
or
modprobe cnic 

To load the bnx2i driver:

insmod bnx2i.ko
or
modprobe bnx2i 

To load the bnx2fc driver for BCM57712 device:

insmod bnx2fc.ko

or

modprobe bnx2fc

service bnx2fcd start

Note that the inbox kernel may have an older version of bnx2, bnx2x and cnic driver. It is important for FCoE offload user to unload these inbox versions before attempting to load bnx2fc driver. You can do either of these two options:

a) Reboot the server.
b) If already loaded, unload inbox bnx2, bnx2x, cnic drivers, and load the newly installed version from netxtreme2-foce package using 'modprobe '

• Driver upgrade ( rpm -Uvh) is not supported.

• On SLES 11, change "allow_unsupported_modules" parameter value of /etc/modprobe.d/unsupport-modules' from 0 to 1, until bnx2fc driver is inbox. Failing to do so will not load bnx2fc.

• To configure the network protocol and address, refer to various Linux documentations.
